Congratulations to @joshtickell and @beccatickell for receiving the #GoldenGlobes Prize for Documentary in Partnership with @artemisrisingfoundation at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival for  @groundswell_film 🎬🏆

✨ WE WON ✨

We’re still trying to find the words for this…
Groundswell has won the Golden Globe Prize for Documentary at @festivaldecannes ✨

What an unbelievable honor. From the very beginning, this film was created with one hope….to share stories that inspire people to care more deeply for our planet, our food systems, and each other. To see those stories resonate with so many people around the world means everything to us.

This award is so much bigger than our team alone. It belongs to every farmer, producer, storyteller, and changemaker who opened their hearts to us and trusted us with their stories. It belongs to the incredible team at @bigpictureranch, to everyone behind the scenes who poured love into this project, and to every single person who watched, shared, learned, and chose to make even the smallest change after seeing the film.

Knowing that these conversations are reaching people and helping create hope, awareness, and action for the future of our planet is the greatest reward we could ever ask for!

We are deeply grateful, incredibly emotional, and honestly just taking a moment to let it all sink in 💛🌎

There is so much more to come, and we cannot wait to share what’s next with you all. 🌎✨

✨We are excited to announce that GROUNDSWELL (@groundswell_film) is an Official Selection at Festival de Cannes @festivaldecannes !✨

This film is the powerful third chapter in the documentary trilogy of Kiss the Ground and Common Ground, from award-winning directorsRebecca Tickell (@beccatickell) and Josh Tickell (@joshtickell) via @bigpictureranch 🙏🏼

GROUNDSWELL takes you on a breathtaking journey across the globe, narrated by Demi Moore (@demimoore) and Woody Harrelson (@woodyharrelson), giving direct perspectives on the movement toward a regenerative form of agriculture: a practical and proven set of farming practices that build living soil, store vast amounts of carbon deep underground, and produce more nutrient-dense food on the same acre of land 🌎

Across the world, farmers, scientists, Indigenous leaders, and visionaries are proving at all scales: It is measurable, it is better for human health, it is taking hold. And it’s quietly reversing three interconnected critical crises facing humanity: climate change, species extinction, and soil loss.

You will witness the multitude of methods and solutions restoring our planet - addressing and reversing these trends on an ecosystem-by-ecosystem basis - proving that regeneration is not just possible, it’s in progress...

Grasslands are breathing again. Rivers are running clean. Species are returning. Carbon is being drawn deep into the earth. Yields are climbing as soil comes back to life. A groundswell of hope and a living blueprint for global renewal 🙏🏼

Our entire team is honored to be selected. We are thankful to Executive Producers: Ian Somerhalder, Nikki Reed, Rosario Dawson, Laura Turner Seydel, Annie Roney, Regina Scully, Kat Taylor, Jan Ellison Baszucki, Bill Benenson, Simon Michael Carroll, Anne Crawford, John Paul Dejoria, Finian Makepeace, Dudley Dezonia, Holly Dillon, Patrick Holden, Chris Lindstrom, Susie Lucas, Alasdair Macleod, Pat Mitchell; Producers: Rebecca Tickell, Josh Tickell, Ryland Engelhart, Laurie Benenson, Eric Dillon; Impact partner Kiss The Ground, and many others (too many to list!)

See you @festivaldecannes.

Stay tuned for updates on the global launch.

Thank you all!

Friends, I'd like to introduce “Common Ground Redux” the new educational edition of our award-winning documentary Common Ground (@commongroundfilm).

This 45 minute educational cut shares the challenges of our current food and farm systems and the impact of regenerative agriculture, directly from farmers, ranchers, educators, and advocates who dedicate their lives to solutions-based regenerative principles and practices.

Their incredible stories show in so many ways how it’s possible to restore farms, ranches, soil, food, communities...one acre at a time.

Building on our commitment to education with the ‘For Schools’ campaign of “Kiss the Ground” film, which has grown to be seen in over 60,000 schools worldwide, “Common Ground Redux” continues offering these stories and solutions as a free educational resource to all.

Watch and share this film to support healthy farms and food systems in your community!

Thank you all.

Soil health is intimately connected to human health!” @drmarkhyman shares his insight and his support for #regenerativeagriculture in this clip from our global launch discussion on Earth Day 2025, moderated by the filmmakers, including so many incredible leaders.

For decades, the climate movement has focused on technological solutions - solar panels, electric cars, wind turbines. These are all fine, but here’s the problem:

- They are slow to scale.
- They require massive industrial extraction, which creates more CO2.
- They don’t directly cool the land.
- They are expensive.
- They require finite resources, most of which happen to be on indigenous lands.

The truth? Nature will always outperform technology. And nature’s best tool for cooling the planet? Green living plants – including grass, shrubs and trees.

(Earlier this year) standing in a farm smack dab in the middle of New South Wales, #Australia, baking in the merciless Aussie sun with Gabe Brown, the farmer and rancher who is featured in both our Kiss the Ground and @CommonGroundFilm (and arguably a progenitor of modern #regenerativeagriculture), stands drenched in sweat, surrounded by a group of farmers. He’s got a shovel full of soil and grass and he’s pointing out the numerous issues with the way this field has been managed.

While the thrust of what Gabe is saying is the same thing as he said many times in farm fields around the world, today is different…
